A filmmaker with a soft spot for Ronnie Peterson, Gilles Villeneuve, Mika Hakkinen and above all, Tazio Nuvolari and Ayrton Senna, is also a diehard Formula One fan since the age of 4 (mid-90's). An avid researcher of the past of Grand Prix Racing since before it was even named F1, and with a thirst for knowledge of the ins and outs of the actuality of the sport, as well as for the technical aspects that define it, is a member of GPblog since 2023, where he has put his love of racing to good use.
Max Verstappen has recently proven time and time again, his allegiance to Red Bull Racing, however, pending the hierarchical revamp incoming in 2026, the Dutchman could very well make the move to Ferrari.
Recently the Dutchman opened up on the conditions that such a move would require, in statements to GPblog during media day at the Italian Grand Prix.
Following up on those comments, the Dutchman was asked if there was a chance that he would ever drive for Ferrari.
"I don't know," he said to GPblog.
"The thing was also, they have two drivers contracted for next year anyway, right?", referring to Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton who are fixed in their seats come next season.
"So, then there is no discussion anyway," he reasserted, brushing off any past chances of a potential swap to Ferrari, which evidently came undone as well in light of his Hungarian Grand Prix announcement to continue on at Red Bull Racing in 2026.

"But you know, I don't even know how long I'm driving in Formula One [for]," he concluded reaffirming the possibility once again.
